Estate Planning lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Your legal guardian? The legal guardian proposed for your children? Yes there a simple and inexpensive ways to make such changes by codicil, but you really should seek counsel at least one more time as you appear a bit confused and really need to do this correctly to have your wishes honored.

Would judges follow a signed will over one that was not?

Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
Yes, unless strong proof were introduced that the unsigned will actually had been signed, but something destroyed to the signed original (like a fire, a scheming beneficiary, etc.)

How can I guarantee that all the assets my spouse inherited from our marriage go to our child and not to the new spouse if I die first?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
A trust is the best way to do this. Two trusts can be used for even additional security. There are many things that go into this, but a trust is clearly the best planning tool to use. This should be set up by an estate planning attorney because your child's inheritance is literally at stake.
